  • Prep 20 min
  • Total 6 hr 20 min
  • Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound fully cooked smoked turkey sausage ring, cut into 1/2-inch slices
  • 2/3 cup shredded carrot
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 2 cans (15 1/2 ounces each) great northern beans, drained and 3/4 cup liquid reserved
  • 1 teaspoon dried marjoram leaves
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Steps

  • 1
    Mix all ingredients including reserved bean liquid in 2- to 3 1/2-quart slow cooker.
  • 2
    Cover and cook on low heat setting 6 to 8 hours, or until hot and bubbly, to blend and develop flavors.

  • Dried leaf herbs are called for in most slow cooker recipes because they tend to hold their flavor better than fresh herbs during long cooking times. However, if you have fresh herbs on hand, stir in 1 tablespoon fresh marjoram and 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves at the end of the cooking time.
  • It doesn't matter what type of beans you use in this recipe. Butter, kidney and black beans are super alternatives to the great northern beans.
